Firstly, I am not subscribed to the list so a CC on any answer would be
nice. :)
I have an IBM A31p laptop with the ATI Radeon 7800 video chip in it.
This works nicely under XFree86 4.2 when I force the chip ID to be
0x5157, the 7500 hardware ID.
To the best of my knowledge, and after reasonably extensive research,
this chip seems to be a 7500 hardware core with a set of OpenGL drivers
for Windows that have been tested for performance and compatibility.
The hardware, though, does not seem to differ -- but the PCI information
does. The hardware identifies as vendor 0x1002, device 0x4c58.
I have been happily running this as a 7500 chip, as I mentioned, for
over a month now and it works perfectly in that mode for all features.
So, assuming that I am right and all that needs be done is add the PCI
id to the ATI driver, how would I go about getting that done?
Regards,
Daniel
